An employer, or appointed employment agent, needs to apply on behalf of the candidate.

Timeline verification provides a chronological overview of a candidate's work, education, and other activities over a specified length of time. Gaps are automatically identified according to your requirements and submitted for verification in line with your preferences. Our automation of this service helps reduce turnaround time and provide greater consistency.

Sterling’s reference verifications include interviews with professional references regarding the candidate’s performance and reliability. This service verifies competencies and job-relevant personal qualities. Multiple workflow options allow you to tailor verifications to your needs. A standard predefined reference script is used. Custom scripts are available.

Credential checks are used to identify any discrepancies between the candidate’s claims regarding their licenses and certifications and the records held by the specified licensing/certification board. A credential check confirms issuing agency, license status, date awarded, expiration date, license type, and disciplinary actions.
